Chapter 52: A Sudden Declaration of War

Yong'an, Saint Statue Square, 10 a.m.

A global press conference is about to be held here.

All members of the five-member investigation team, as well as the two members of the Yongan parliament, are sitting on the high platform at the moment.

I don't know if it was because of the assassination of Councilor Yong'an just now, but the security of this press conference is very good, and there are countless security police officers at various high points, around the high platform, and even in the crowd.

In addition, there are Yongan people themselves who have forgotten about the Yongan Army.

One of the items of Yong'an autonomy is the right of the army to build itself.

But the word self-built is very mysterious, not autonomous...... Just like the Yong'an Army, although there are less than 10,000 people, they have rarely been seen since their inception except for disaster relief.

Just like the last Wanhua Festival incident, they didn't go out and still stayed in the barracks.

In the hearts of Yongan people, the Yongan Army has almost no sense of existence.

For example, Yong'an, a city with a population of more than one million, has nearly 50,000 public security police, who play a role in maintaining public order, traffic management, criminal investigation, and other forms of maintaining the normal operation of social order.

The Yongan Army was less than 10,000.

These nearly 10,000 people have been stationed in the military camp outside the city, not so much to protect Yong'an, but to ...... Surveillance.

Who does Yong'an Jun listen to? I'm afraid that Li Zhenying, who represents the highest power in Yongan, is a little puzzled.

It's not that I can't understand, but I don't dare to think that Peiguo has been founded for 500 years, and the bigwigs in the army have fallen batch after batch, of course, nominally the army still listens to the king, but Peiguo has more than 5 million soldiers in the country, is it really ironclad?

Twenty years ago, wasn't the Northwest Army an example?

Although most of the Yongan army are Yong'an people, the officers from the colonel level to the general level are all sent by the Peiguo Central Army.

Just like this press conference, Li Zhenying and Li Qianfan saw Yong'an Jun, and the two glanced at each other and looked away.

As a result, they all fell on the Countess in the center of the rostrum.

The Earl is a well-known prestige in the army, and although he has long since left the army, he ...... When Li Qianfan met with Li Zhenying in the morning, he saw the official document that the investigation team needed to transfer 300 Yong'an troops.

From the House of Lords, which is the House of Elites.

At that time, both of them were extremely surprised because it did not comply with the procedure.

There was no order from the Central Army, let alone the king's approval...... Even the prime minister didn't say anything, what did the House of Elites want to do? At that time, the two thought that the other party would let them read the official document to save face, and as for whether the army would listen to the dispatch of the House of Elites, who knows.

This is beyond the scope of the Yongan Chamber, Li Qianfan and Li Zhenying both understand that there may be someone above who is playing, as for who it is, what they want to fight for, and what the current situation is, this is not something that the two of them can know.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Li Qianfan asked the residents on the street last night not to open the windows, and all the people who entered the venue today had to go through three security checks in addition to verifying their identities.

That's it, the Yongan Army still came, and it also drove a newly developed amphibious field tank from Peiguo.

Li Qianfan felt that this was a demonstration.

After all, this is a continent-wide live broadcast.

Directly under the high platform sat the heads of various districts and departments, and farther away were the people who were surrounded by water.

Zhao Longfei, as the prime minister's chief adviser, took the lead in speaking.

He made a more detailed investigation report on the Wanhuajie beach incident that the people were more concerned about.

He spoke at length for about ten minutes, nothing more than three points:

First, hostile forces deliberately smear them.

Second, there is no need for people to panic and fear.

Thirdly, long live the king of Peiguo.

As for the photos circulating on the Internet, Zhao Longfei did not confess, and the news is like this - sometimes there is no explanation, which can be regarded as an explanation.

This is the art of power.

Jiang Xiaoling in the crowd was not convinced by such a result.

The crowd of onlookers was ...... about the results of such a survey After Zhao Longfei finished speaking, except for the officials present, no one from the people applauded.

The Countess did not care at all about the reaction of the population.

She was whispering something to a colonel officer of the Yong'an Army on the side.

It's a global stream.

The way the two of them whispered was they deliberately done to whom?

Li Qianfan squinted at him, then sat solemnly and motionless.

Li Zhenying glanced at Wang Siyu of the investigation team.

Huixin sat at the very edge of the podium, and as the representative of the House of Commons in Parliament, he should have the most right to speak, but he did not speak.

The Viscount was drinking tea leisurely, his eyes wandering around the people.

The next speaker was Li Qianfan, who was mainly thankful.

To sum up, it is nothing more than three points.

Thanks to the king and the prime minister and the parliament for their concern for Yong'an, Yong'an has caused trouble to Peiguo, Yong'an knows that he is wrong, and he will definitely strengthen management in the future.

Thanks to the love of Peiguo people to Yong'an, the number of guests who came to Yong'an this year has reached a new high.

Thank you Yongan people for their dedication and sacrifice in this incident.

"It's really boring." In the crowd of people, Cicada and Jiang Xiaoling held hands, the two listened to the speech on the rostrum, and Cicada kept urging Jiang Xiaoling to leave.

She really didn't want to hear this nonsense.

"There's no nonsense, it's all after careful consideration." Jiang Xiaoling is very familiar with press releases, like today's press conference, everyone's speeches, I am afraid that Peiguo's party, government, and military leaders have already seen it, and even proposed amendments.

"Don't you think it's strange to make such a big battle?" Jiang Xiaoling looked at the countess, the bewitching lady was sitting seriously at the moment, taking a sip of tea from a teacup.

Behind them is a statue of a saint that has stood for nearly five hundred years.

"What's so strange about this, it's been a long time since there are so many big people in Yong'an."

Cicada stared at the countess on the rostrum with a curious expression, in her opinion, the countess was not as good-looking as Sister Mei, and the result was ...... People have a good life, they don't have to worry about eating and drinking in this life, and their children and grandchildren will all be the masters who eat food and don't pay taxes.

"Let's go...... Let's go find Sister Mei for tea. Jiang Xiaoling saw that Cicada was impatient, so he agreed to prepare to leave.

At this moment, the five-person group on the stage suddenly stood up.

They represent the government, the courts, the royal family, the common people.

Li Qianfan and Li Zhenying glanced at each other and stood up, each other's eyes full of doubts.

Is this going to be a show? The press conference is almost at the end of the day.

Is something going on? Li Qianfan thought to himself.

The camera that is live streaming turns.

I was connected to the conference room of the Central Army.

In the conference room, there were three generals, who represented the navy, land and air force, and were the three oldest generals in the three armed forces.

Across from them, sat an old man dressed in a medal.

Generalissimo of the Army, Navy and Air Force of Peiguo, Minister of Defense, Supreme Leader of the Army under King Peiguo,

He spoke to the camera for a few minutes.

The more Jiang Xiaoling listened, the more surprised she became, and even the cicada understood.

The Sage Square, where thousands of people had gathered, was silent at the moment.

The Generalissimo said:

"In recent years, the activities of terrorist forces have been very rampant, and for the sake of national peace and security, the Ministry of National Defense is preparing to conduct a military operation."

"Unite with the Stardust Federal Government to carry out a military strike against several well-known terrorist organizations in the Mochizuki Continent."

"These terrorist organizations are the Red Moon, the Blood Wolf Pirate Organization, as well as the Crusade Army and the Patriotic Army."

"Going to war?" Jiang Xiaoling muttered to herself a little distracted.

The people on the side shouted excitedly at this time: Good fight! Kill them all!

In the end, it was gathered into one sentence, Peiguo will win.

"War is always the best way to divert internal contradictions." Thinking like this, Jiang Xiaoling pulled the cicada out of the crazy crowd.

She didn't care about pirate organizations, the first thing that came to her mind was the Crusade Army and the Patriotic Army.

These are two of the three largest forces in the Great Wilderness Continent.

From this moment on, the city of ruins.

There will be no more days of peace.

- Listen, the carnival people say: A new era is coming-
